Description :

This is our 1 Hct land in the town of Kalinovka (Kiev region ). with only 32 Km from the center of Kiev, we have access to over 200 sawmills within the region of 100kms . We have 7 buildings (hangers/ sheds/offices) with a total covered area of 2700m2.

we are bringing 30% of our wood here as we are only making kiln drying here , effective 1/06/2018 all AST operations will be moved to our new facility in Rudniya - Brovary.

We have TERMOLEGNO 340m3 chambers with Italian technology and Italian boiler for drying our wood.

On 15/04/2018 we successfully installed our additional boiler of 1.5 MW made locally in Ukraine , now the two boilers are interconnected making us ready to add new chambers for larger capacity of drying.

We have started errecting 2 new chmabers from Mühlböck Austria with total capacity of 260m3 , this will increasing our total drying capacity to over 600m3 in 5 chmabers by the end of 2018
